If you want to improve mastitis
resistance, you need to register
Clinical mastitis.
If you want to improve hoof health,
you need to register hoof diseases.
If you want to improve health in
general, you need to register the
actual diseases.
In breeding you get what you go for!

• Animal health and welfare will
play a bigger role in the future
• Its important we can be proud of
what we do and that we
continuously breed for healthier
cows.
• A responsibility for all in dairy
industry
• The good thing is that a healthy
cow is also a profitable cow.
